Behind The Lens

Location

National Botanical Garden, Lucknow,India It is a prestigious Botanical research institute of India and has almost every possible variety of flowers,trees,fauna in their very vast gardens.

Time

In the afternoon at about 4.50 pm

Lighting

Sun was nearing to set, in the afternoon light was very soft in the month of February.I preferred the flower to be back lit to get the transparent effect of white poppy flower. At the same time on one of the red poppy flower, the brim was shining with white light ,thus creating a very pleasant effect.I love photographing flowers, specially the poppy flowers for when a light breeze creates a rhythmic movement in the stem and the buds produce a mesmerizing atmosp0here.

Equipment

Nikon D60

Inspiration

It is my passion to photograph flowers when they are in their full beauty during season in which lthey bloom and blossom.

Editing

Very minor, only slight level correction.

In my camera bag

I have many with me but at that time I used NikonD60, with normal 55mm lens.

Feedback

Well it is very difficult for me to advice other fellow photographers, as every one has his/her own viewpoint,style etc. And there are master in this field .Though I,m doing creative photography from last 20-25 years, but I still find myself in the process of learning.One very simple thing which I can share is that I prefer photographing flower against the light and mostly in the afternoon.
